    Super Clean GSX

    After a very long hiatus today marked a truly significant day in the car's history.After being put into storage 3 years ago due to critically dangerous amounts of rust in the shock towers, two weeks ago with the help of JasonDSM the GSX and a donor car I purchased were towed to a local shop in...

    2G Finding turbo-to-manifold bolts in 2021

    The bolt threads stripped.In my personal experience every time a thread strips on a bolt it's because the bolt wasn't designed to handle high torque specs. I can back this up because when I use a bolt of higher torque specs it does just fine. The threads were perfectly okay and the class 11...

    2G Finding turbo-to-manifold bolts in 2021

    Oh trust me, I know I will ;)I've had my GSX for almost 5 years and it was my first turbo AWD car that started as a daily and then became a project. Since buying a WRX as a daily a couple years ago I fought every single day not to wind more power into it and instead to focus on reliability...

    2G Help needed Running lean/only getting 5lbs boost

    Not to clog up this thread but a wideband o2 sensor wouldn't be a bad thing to have either. I run one in both my cars both as a safety measure and for logging purposes :DAlso also I'd consider running an electronic boost gauge rather than an analog one. Again, I have one in both of my cars...

    2G Finding turbo-to-manifold bolts in 2021

    I just ordered an OEM set from JNZ. I'm not sold on ARP's exhaust bolts, though I do like the bolt-head design and I have heard stellar things about their head studs. As I said I completely rounded one of their exhaust bolts off, and a rounded thread won't cause a rounded bolt ime.And I don't...

    2G Finding turbo-to-manifold bolts in 2021

    Hey, if it's pricey but it's worth it then it's not too pricey :DI'll have to cross my fingers and hope that those bolts along with a thread chaser are enough to fix my issue. I really don't want to have to a.) tap new threads or b.) replace the compressor housing :( part of my punishment for...

    I need an AWD rear sway bar with bushings, but I'd buy a full set with bushings and just sell whatever I didn't need myself :thumb:

    2G Cranks and fires but won't start

    Regarding the coolant temp sensor theory,I am using stock injectors so those are all correct, and the Boost reading is staying at -28.9 the whole time during cranking. However when the car was running and driving about a month ago the Boost reading stayed at -28.9 too during startup and...

    2G Cranks and fires but won't start

    I have used this MAP sensor before countless times and it has had 0 issues. It's possible that the sensor crapped out on me without my knowledge :idontknow: I don't see any way of logging any MAP values, but the average MAF value was 13.9 Hz, and I have the MDP locked since i am running speed...

    The 30A ignition switch fuse and 20A motor fuse are both working. If you pull the IS fuse the car doesn't have any accessory power, after I put it back in the car gets accessory power, and if you pull the motor fuse the CEL doesn't power on for 5 seconds, after I put it back in it does.I...
